Custom Brew™ by Keurig
Want a stronger, more intense coffee taste? Try Custom Brew™ by Keurig. Custom Brew
allows you to customize your coffee experience, resulting in a more intense cup (less than
the standard 8 oz.).
• Custom Brew can be activated by either: pressing and holding the Green “Brew”
button for 20 seconds, or;
• Pressing the Green “Brew” button once and then pressing it again any time after
20 seconds has passed from the first pressing.
Drip Tray and Exit Needle Cleaning Tool
The drip tray can accumulate up to eight ounces of overflow. It should be periodically in-
spected and rinsed clean. To remove the tray, simply slide the tray toward you, keeping it
level at all times, to avoid spilling.
On the underside of the drip tray you will find a tool that is designed for cleaning the exit
needle, should a clog arise. The exit needle is located on the inside bottom of the K-Cup
Holder. Please refer to the Care and Maintenance section for specific instructions on using
this tool.
K-Cup®
The Brewer operates with a patented, single serve portion pack called the K-Cup. The K-Cup
contains an individual serving of freshly ground specialty coffee. The coffee is nitrogen-
sealed in the K-Cup to preserve freshness for at least six months. This portion pack should
not be opened, punctured or reused.
Brew Drawer
The brew drawer is manually operated and located on
the brewer front.
Pull out brew drawer.
Place K-Cup in K-Cup holder, foil side up. DO NOT
REMOVE FOIL LID OR PUNCTURE THE K-
CUP.
Close brew drawer fully, until the drawer catch detent
is felt. Flashing green ready light indicates full closure
of the drawer and the B1000 is ready to brew.
